She feels to me as a trash pick outside of Goats.
I feel too weak playing her, and I loved playing her but the armor nerf on top of the decaying ult. I really like her, but these days I cant play her without thinking, ‘wow she is bad’

Good in bronze but fall off fast. The Junkrat or Reaper of supports.
Probably needs something with a learning curve injected into her kit, and Rally is really underpowered.
Im probably asking for a GOATS buff by saying this, but i also think its dumb that she has no Inspire without going full warpig. Not even 8 hps to supplement the main support?

I think design wise its bad to have a hero who is only good in one particular comp.
I seeing all good things like workshop but she remains untouched

Depends who you ask. I think she’s getting the Sombra treatment at the moment. People saying she’s only good in a coordinated GOATs meta, and others saying she’s useless outside of it, sprinkled in with some absurd statements like she is “Too OP”. I’m sure the truth is in there somewhere.

Workshop was a pet project made by only 2 devs. Its an extra. It didn’t take any resouces away from other stuff like hero balance.

There will always be those who demand further nerfs for Brig (see: Front page of the forums any given minute), but it seems like the majority of the forums nowadays consider her sufficiently gutted.

Depends on what enemy plays. She crushes the enemy if they run two flankers.

She feels really bad outside of GOAT, the community successfully destroy her

She fullfills her role as anti flankers, maybe still a little too good at it. Her brawling power is still amazing and synergies well with Rein and Zarya. You need a lot of resources to take her out.
All in all she is still a horrendous addition to the game.
Can you really blame the community when Brigitte herself successfully destroyed the game for the whole year?

Considering she is an off healer i think she needs ult buffs. Like an instant 100 armour when activated and then normal rally. All other off healers have game changing ults
The brig haters will say how great she is and yet facts do not lie.
Lowest healing output
Worst utility
No mobility
No range
minimum damage
Literally all she is good for is to keep low skill tracers out of the main healers hair

Exactly how you said. Garbage outside of 3-3 nearly a throw. And in comp no one is running 3-3 anymore in GM. So she is useless now. Hate Brig, but gosh she needs a rework.
is extrmely broken for the most important 1% of the player base (OWL)
for everyone who plays with complete randoms is complete garbage
I firmly believe every hero should be viable by himself first and then attack broken stuff, but not taking away things that make the hero work alone
You say as brigitte wasnt used in goats much for half of a year but goats persisted. Yea, totally brigitte herself.
Before all the nerfs and Goats, Brigitte plagued the ladder all by herself. She was so strong to the point that even the possibility of someone switching to her already renders majority of the cast useless.
She destroyed YOUR game. Not mine.
She’s honestly a bit of a scapeGOAT at this point. I’d definitely like to see her AOE healing reduced (but keep her self heal the same) and reduce the cooldown of repair pack to compensate. But she’s not the reason GOATS is so strong. Overwatch has had major tank-related balance issues for ages now. Remember NIP comp? The issue is that tank ults are hugely overpowered, and they charge quickly because tanks as a class do way more damage than they should. Zarya in particular. Graviton Surge is theoretically the slowest-charging ult in the game, but a good Zarya can charge it up every other teamfight, sometimes even faster. And ever since they made it silence movement abilities, there isn’t really any counterplay. It’s literally “press Q to win.” Because of that, you Need to run a Zen and a Lucio, because Trance and Sound Barrier are the only ults that give you a fighting chance against Grav Surge. D.Va’s survivability, damage output, and ability to eat Grav Surge also make her a no-brain pick. You still need a shield tank, and Earthshatter is almost as good as Grav Surge, so you need a Reinhardt. At this point you have a clumped-up deathball comp with plenty of damage already, so just toss Brigitte in there for some extra survivability and hey presto! You have GOATS.
Brig is the most hated character in the game. I think the population of overwatch dived with her introduction.
She’s not in a good place. Jeff specifically mentioned that they’re aware that she needs help, so ideally we’ll see her get some work moving forward
